Nokia defends strategy, explores tablets

Nokia defended its strategy in front of shareholders on Thursday.

“I am confident that Nokia has the right team, right strategy and now increasingly also the right products on the market to get us through this transition period,” chairman-designate Risto Siilasmaa told reporters before entering the shareholder meeting.

Jorma Ollila, Risto Siilasmaa’s predecessor, said earlier in an interview with the Financial Times that the company is exploring a variety of new products, including a range of tablets and "hybrid" smart mobile devices to turn the company’s fortunes around.
